Now I find myself in a band called Gestures. I'm playing tenor saxophone. The picture above does not feature me; nor do the songs on the Web site. You can only find me by showing up at the Velvet Lounge on Wednesday, January 9, where we're playing with Adventure (from Baltimore) and Terrior Bute and Big Fun (both from Milwaukee).
Gestures seems in this case to be the butt of a which-one-doesn't-belong joke by the booking agent, since the other acts on the bill are crisp and electronic whereas we proffer acoustic noise. But the hope is that we'll find instead that we all belong (and you, too).
Posted by Kriston at January 3, 2008 5:40 PMThe first track to come up on the myspace page ("rip", apparently) has kind of a fife and drum band thing going on, which reminds me of this album on which the fife is similarly out of tune. Though I doubt it's really a fife in the Gestures track. Ah well.

Posted by: ben wolfson at January 3, 2008 11:50 PMThat song was recorded with a flute and also a trumpet, it sounds to me, but neither of those appear in the lineup now. There are two (sometimes three) drummers, one sax, one clarinet, one (sometimes two) trombones, and one tuba.

Posted by: Bernard Vavricek at June 8, 2011 6:22 PMAwesome blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers? I'm planning to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything. Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I'm totally confused .. Any tips? Appreciate it!
